On July 17, 2026, Commerce received timely and complete notices of intent to participate in the sunset reviews for the domestic interested party within the deadline specified in 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(i).[3]
The domestic interested party claimed interested party status within the meaning of sections 771(9)(C) and 771(9)(F) of the Act as a U.S. manufacturer and producer of the domestic like product and as an association the majority of whose members produce the domestic like product.[4]

Commerce did not receive a substantive response from any respondent interested party. On August 24, 2026, Commerce notified the ITC that it did not receive a substantive response from any respondent interested parties.[7]
As a result, pursuant to section 751(c)(3)(B) of the Act and 19 CFR 351.218(e)(1)(ii)(C)(2), Commerce is conducting expedited (120-day) sunset reviews of the
